[SciPy-User] [ANN] Fortranformat - Fortran format emulation for Python

[Brendan Arnold]

Hi there,

Fortranformat is a library that emulates the functionality of FORTRAN
format statements in Python.

>>> import fortranformat as ff
>>> line = ff.FortranRecordReader('(4I4)')
>>> line.read('   1   2   3   4')
[1, 2, 3, 4]

>>> line = ff.FortranRecordWriter('(4I4)')
>>> line.read([1, 2, 3, 4])
'   1   2   3   4'

It is extensively unit tested (to a degree that I was able to file a
bug report or two to the gfortran people!) but not tested in practice.
I'd appreciate some feedback.

It is available on PyPi and the project homepage is
https://bitbucket.org/brendanarnold/py-fortranformat

Try it out with:

pip install fortranformat

Kind regards,

Brendan
